Accrual has launched with 75 million USD from General Catalyst to bring AI-native automation to accounting firms. The platform uses AI agents to reduce tax prep time by 85 percent and review time by 60 percent, effectively adding one accountant's capacity for every 50 complex returns. This represents a systemic shift toward AI-enabled rollups where unstructured data is handled autonomously. The focus now moves from manual coordination to high-value professional judgment and advisory. π
